Ling (NAO,CAS) on behalf of the Einstein Probe (EP) team: \n\nEP-FXT performed a follow-up observation of the SVOM/ECLAIRs-detected burst GRB 260831B (SVOM/sb26083106) (Godet et al. GCN 45477; Guan et al. GCN 45482) at 2026-08-31T21:31:08 (UTC), about 3 hours after the SVOM/ECLAIRs trigger, with an exposure time of 3002s. There is no uncataloged source within ECLAIRs' error box. The upper limit of this observation is about 2 x 10^(-13) erg/s/cm^2.\n\nLaunched on January 9, 2024, EP is a space X-ray observatory to monitor the soft X-ray sky with X-ray follow-up capability (Yuan et al. 2022, Handbook of X-ray and Gamma-ray Astrophysics)."
